Thank you all for your answers. My wallet seems to lose sync if it is inactive when I am gone. Sometimes it can take a few hours to sync again. As a not-so-technical user I see how this would be very frustrating for new users. What are the odds that a platform like Coinbase could emerge to make it easy for non-technical users? Something that could automatically convert any assets or equity to BitUSD when a merchant transactions takes place. IMO one of the major issues with all cryptocurrencies is the psychological barrier of the decimal place. Average users have a hard time processing information to the right of the decimal point, because they have always used the numbers to the left in commerce. Do you see an online wallet and vault in the near future? I wonder if Marc Andreessen would fund it?
